Seasonal and Special Beer Releases from Snoqualmie Falls Brewing

Two press releases from Snoqualmie Falls Brewing. One about the annual release of Harvest Moon Festbier and the other about the introduction of a new special release beer: Zippy Lemon Wheat.

SNOQUALMIE FALLS BREWING RELEASES HARVEST MOON FESTBIER.

22oz “Bombers” and kegs to be available at taproom and finer beer stores throughout Washington and Idaho.

Snoqualmie, Washington – As part of our Seasonal Beer program, the Snoqualmie Falls Brewing Company is excited to release its Fall favorite, Harvest Moon. Newly rebranded and with a tweaked recipe, Harvest Moon is available for widespread distribution through October. Part of our new program for seasonal is to change the recipe slightly every year. This year Harvest Moon’s Tettnanger Hops have been reduced slightly, which allows the malt to come forward, resulting in a perception of increased sweetness. This beer is perfect when paired with the heartier meals of Fall such as stews, roast beef with Yorkshire pudding, and desserts such as spice or carrot cake.

To draw attention to the changed beer, Harvest Moon’s label has also changed to a more dynamic look with a wolf in a barley field howling at a full moon.

SNOQUALMIE FALLS BREWING RELEASES ZIPPY LEMON WHEAT ALE.

22oz “Bombers” and kegs to be available at taproom and finer beer stores throughout Washington and Idaho.

Snoqualmie, Washington – As part of our Special Release program, the Snoqualmie Falls Brewing Company is excited to release its latest creation, Zippy, on September 11th. Previously available on draft in the brewery, this delicious, lemon flavored clear wheat ale will now be available for widespread distribution through December. This beer is a great respite for high-gravity ale lovers who are getting hop fatigue. Zippy is 7.2% ABV and is brewed to 25 IBUs with a wheat ale grist, Czech Saaz hops and an Abbey yeast and then dosed with lemon juice to add a slightly tart, citrus flavor. Zippy is excellent paired with Thai food, salads and rich desserts.

This Special Release is a tribute to the comic strip Zippy, who has been drawn by Bill Griffith over the last 40 years. Zippy is known for his nonsensical and non sequitur comments such as “Am I having fun yet?”, and Bill allowed us to use Zippy’s likeness on our label. Zippy’s character is a perfect match for this wacky lemon flavored wheat ale. Are we having beer yet?
